So I was still busy reading this summer. Since April, I have read five more books. I slowed way down on my reading once the weather warmed up. But, now that I'm a commuter by bus a few days a week, I am able to get some extra minutes of reading in each day. I'm also getting back into my routine of reading for 15-30 minutes before bed. Even being 26 weeks pregnant, I am sleeping pretty amazing. Reading really helps me turn my mind off and slow me down and eventually drift off to sleep.
It appears that many of the books I read this summer were movies I've seen or have an interest in seeing. I love comparing the book to the movie and the movie to the book. I love getting inside of the character's heads inside of the book and learning details that you don't see or hear on film. A Scattered Life is something I picked up for dirt cheap in the bargain bin at the book store. A couple of these were also great gifts I received for Mother's Day and my birthday. Otherwise, I tend to borrow my books from our local library. I'm looking forward to reading many more books this fall as the nights turn longer and cooler.
